About this map

Cabinet serves as the focal point of this mountainous region, situated where the Clark Fork river cuts through the landscape. The geography is defined by the proximity of the Cabinet Mountains to the north and the Coeur d'Alene Mountains to the south, with the massive Cabinet Gorge acting as a significant hydrological feature. This map highlights the complex boundaries of the Kaniksu National Forest and Coeur d'Alene National Forest, which dominate much of the surrounding terrain.

Local navigation and historic routes are well-documented, including the Kootenai Cabinet Wagon Rd and various forest roads like Blue Creek Rd and Dry Creek Rd. The area is characterized by dramatic elevation changes, with peaks such as Beaver Peak and ridges like Elk Ridge rising above deep drainages including Beaver Gulch and Jacks Gulch. Smaller water bodies like Schlicht Lake and numerous creeks such as Gold Cr and Blue Cr provide additional detail for those tracing the hydrography of the Idaho-Montana border.
